and

The

is
fastened
to
the
machine
in
the
same
manner
as
the
Presser-Foot.
There
are
five
different
slots,
which
are
shown
j

serving
as

How
to
Adjust
the
Edge-Stitcher
To
adjust,
move
the
lug

When
sewing
two
pieces
of
lace
together,
it
is
very
necessary
that
the
attachment
is
adjusted
to
stitch
exactly
on
the
edge,
so
that
the
edges
wili
not
fold
over
when
laundered.
When
sewing
laces
or
soft
materials
together,
it
is
better
to
hold
the
edges,
slightly
overlapped.
This
will
prevent
the
lace
from
feeding
away
from
the
guide.
When
the
attachment
is
properly
adjusted,
the
most in.
experienced
operator
may
sew
yards
of
lace
or
material
together
with
no
difficulty.
